The tower is back. Whoop. S2

Don't read any further us haven't seen s1 /want spoilers from it

There was a thread I did for s1

Here is s1

https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/telly_addicts/4395979-THE-TOWER-ITV-9pm-MON-TUE-WED?utm_campaign=thread&utm_medium=share

So

S1 ended ITV’s three-episode police drama The Tower ended (https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a38189303/itv-the-tower-ending-explained/) with Detective Sergeant Sarah Collins and rookie officer Lizzie Adama standing together at the grave of young Libyan refugee Farah, whose death Lizzie had witnessed and Sarah had been investigating.

Lizzie was not being prosecuted for her role in Farah’s death, and it looked like the one cop who could be charged in relation to the crime – Lizzie’s boss and lover, DI Shaw, who had hidden vital evidence – had frustratingly got away with it.

S2

The series opens with PC Adama returning to Farlow Police Station to be partnered with fellow officer Arif Johar (Michael Karim) by her boss and former lover DI Shaw.

The series begins with Lizzie’s return to Farlow station, where her boss and former lover, DI Kieran Shaw, assigns her to partner with Arif Johar (Michael Karim) to handle a domestic violence case involving Mark Brannon. Mark is accused of assaulting his girlfriend, Georgina Teel, and causing distress to their young daughter Skye.

Lizzie successfully convinces Georgina to speak out about Mark’s actions, leading to his arrest by Lizzie and Arif. However, as the case progresses to the courtroom, Lizzie faces intense cross-examination on the witness stand, putting the case in a precarious position.

Meanwhile, Sarah Collins has transitioned to Homicide Command, led by DCI Jim Fedden, who isn’t particularly welcoming to her.

He tasks her with reopening the cold case of Tania Mills, a schoolgirl who vanished on the same day as Princess Diana’s funeral. Despite the seemingly impossible challenge, Sarah dives into the investigation, uncovering overlooked clues and benefiting from her own experiences as a teenager in 1997, the same age as Tania. As Sarah’s inquiry takes unexpected turns, her path intersects once more with Lizzie’s.

Clawdy · 28/08/2023 22:54

Deeply unpleasant tonight. The horrible DV story, and the pervert detailing his fantasies - all a bit grimmer than I expected.

foxlover47 · 28/08/2023 23:04

Just about to watch now x

tennissquare · 28/08/2023 23:13

@Clawdy , I agree, it wasn't really "family viewing", I will watch the other episodes but probably on my own.

PrincessScarlett · 28/08/2023 23:13

Loved it! Thank god we've got a decent drama to watch at last. Gemma Whelan is excellent and find Emmet J Scanlan mesmerising to watch.

Agree that was a very disturbing DV tale. I didn't expect it to escalate so quickly and I wonder where Skye is and who exactly Marnie is. Hope Lizzie doesn't blame herself/get blamed in any way.

Loved Sarah and Elaine's working relationship 😂

lazymum99 · 29/08/2023 11:29

I was reading a review of this and I hadn’t realised that they are based on books written by Kate London who was a police officer in the met. Anyone read them?
